Running version 18.51.1 of GNU Emacs. The command C-h f dired-noselect describes the dired-noselect command. However, I cannot execute this command with M-x Nor does C-h w find it. jonathan king

The function dired-noselect is not an interactive function. Only
interactive functions may be invoked from M-x. This function, not
being interactive is not bound to any key and so C-h w (where-is) is
unable to find it.
To invoke dired-noselect is probably not something you want to do
directly. However, one method you could use to invoke it directly
would be to use eval-expression which is bound to ESC ESC by default.
Enjoy!
